    Not sure if this was posted yet.. But in one of Tony's post-game interviews he states Memphis "didn't do anything different defensively" and how "he was just tired.". Of course EVERYONE in the media will be talking about how 'Memphis found SA's offense out' in the last couple of minutes, and a part me agreed with them. Glad the boys were just exhausted... I guess. What do you think? Was the run due to Grizzlies' Pressure or Spurs' low batteries?

    Spurs being a bit gassed + refs + coasting. We won and now have 3 days off before Game 3.

    Spurs in 5.

    Sure, they'll snatch a game or two where our shot is off and we're trailing the whole way. But they're not taking four out of the next five that's for sure.

    Everybody was obviously gassed, Leonard doesn't look himself either, still playing well though.

    No wonder, since in 1st half offense was all about moving without the ball and Parker just run from on side to the other.

    The series against the Warriors took a toll on the Spurs, but it forced them to play really well.

    The collapse had more to do with taking out Duncan for most of the 4th quarter.

    Which had a lot to do with two bull foul calls on Duncan.

    For all the talk of being gassed or Memphis figuring something out - Spurs were +22 in the game when Duncan when Duncan was on the floor. Among the many, his foul trouble was the single biggest reason Memphis clawed back into it.

    Not that the 4th Q offense wasn't extremely difficult to watch. But so was the first quarter.

    Three days off will help rejuvenate this team, since it'll be every other day for games after game 3. Spurs in 5.

    Funny how the officials took Timmy out of the game with some dubious calls, only to have him be the only one left who was fresh come the overtime.

    The best way to shut the media up is to win one of the next two... or both, preferably...

    They'll blame it on our constant luck, from the Achilles, to steph curry's ankle, to tony Allen's concussion

    Careful... That's what I thought after game 2 of the WCF last year.

    Who is your big 3 in your sig? I recognise the first one but not the other two.

    I think thats a bit disingenuous, Memphis made adjustments, didn't range off their man as much as game 1, and Allen guarded Parker well, Parker was just quicker, like we saw in game 1.

    I think adjustments were made, the Spurs however when they don't coast, move the ball and move on the court, are too good to guard with these matchups.

    Parker would rather say he's tired than throw his coach under the bus. Good for him.

    Part of the reason Parker was tired was due to the Memphis defense.

    Memphis has no answers for the Spurs, as long as the Spurs execute.
